Turn “I’m bored” into an outdoor adventure

Give kids a reason to step outside with 22 story-led missions and games designed for backyards, balconies, local parks and neighbourhood streets.

Made for children aged 3–12, this two-in-one adventure deck combines imaginative storytelling with hands-on outdoor play. Lay out the illustrated cards to create a story, then flip them over and bring the adventure to life.

No complicated planning. No special equipment. Just choose a card and explore.

How it works

Each adventure tells you:

• How long it may take

• What to bring—often just yourselves

• Where to play

• How to complete the story-led mission

Choose a quick 15-minute activity, plan an afternoon adventure or take on the special seven-day mission. The deck works for one child, siblings, friends or a larger group.

What’s inside

• 22 hand-illustrated story cards

• 22 outdoor missions and games

• Two welcome and instruction cards

• Fun educational facts

• A tiny hidden treasure in every illustration

Kids can try scavenger hunts, active games, construction challenges, simple science activities, navigation missions, mindful observation, imaginative quests and conservation activities.

Made for real family life

Keep the deck ready for quiet afternoons, weekends with grandparents, playdates, picnics, school holidays, birthday parties or group activities.

Every mission uses simple household items and can be enjoyed anywhere in Australia. You don’t even need a backyard—a balcony or nearby park is enough.
